Unlimited Food Plan
Chapter 99
"Thank you, Brother Mei." When Young Master Mei said this, Du Changqiu knew that the matter was half over, so he immediately raised his glass and said to Young Master Mei.
What was originally extremely difficult,? Shopkeeper Xiong and others are still lying at home waiting for Du Changqiu and the others to find them if they can't sell the salt. Then hold on to this line, and there will be a steady stream of low-priced good salt in the future.
For this reason, these local emperors almost moved countless contacts, and surrounded the entire Guangyuan County like an iron bucket.Anyway, in the name of doctrine,? Either buy it at a low price,? They take advantage, or this group of people leave,? On the way, they can let Steward Zhou and his party directly encounter the robbers.
This is a transaction worth tens of thousands of taels of silver,? Guangyuan County is poor,? This amount of money is enough to gamble your life.
When I first heard that Steward Zhou was pawning precious items, the Cao family and the Sun family behind were still happy? They even spent a lot of money behind the scenes to buy a few curios—in their view, the money,? You can grab it back, just go out for a while, don't be afraid.
And if the housekeeper is sensible this week and is willing to sell the salt at a low price, they will earn back the money, and they can cooperate in the future.But if Steward Zhou didn't know people, he would have to stay in the mountains near Taiyue City with all his people and salt.
They didn't expect that they were waiting at home to make a fortune, and finally got the news that all the salt was sold to the Mei family, and the Mei family served as a distributor, and they ate it all in one bite.
Shopkeeper Zhou, who sold the salt, and his team did not delay, and set off on the night when the salt was sold out, and left the city directly.
By the time they get the news, they will probably be dozens of miles out of the city.
Selling the salt is not the most disturbing thing. The most disturbing thing is that this person has hooked up with the Mei family.
Du Changqiu didn't know how heartbroken Cao, Sun and Zhang's family were for stealing chickens but not losing money. He looked at the scenery outside the city and felt very refreshed.
It's just that I can't bear to part with Elder Pan. In the past half a month, Du Changqiu has been with Elder Pan every day, and Du Changqiu has somewhat recovered the feeling of the youthful years of studying with his tutor.
In fact, Mr. Pan is also very reluctant to bear him, especially when Du Changqiu is cooking, he occasionally mentions cooking steak, chicken chops, rabbit meat, etc. at home, including bread cakes, etc. The cooking ideas such as chicken chops and scallion butter cookies have opened the door to a new world for Mr. Pan.
Elder Pan has always felt that he has obtained the true inheritance of the Pan family in this life, and there are few people who can rival him in the world, even in the imperial dining room in the palace of Jian'an, there are few people who can keep abreast of him.
But this self-confidence is today. After being exposed to the whole new culinary knowledge of western food, Mr. Pan feels that there is no end to learning. There are still places in this world that he has not yet explored.
Mr. Pan was very interested in this western-style dessert and baking, and he was scratching his head when he heard what Du Changqiu said, but it was a pity that Du Changqiu was in a hurry to go back and arrange spring plowing.
Elder Pan was reluctant to part with them, and before leaving, he was reluctant to part with Du Changqiu, and Liu San was also very reluctant to see off Master Zhou.
"You must look for me next time, Mr. Zhou!" Following Liu San's nasty farewell, reluctant to part with the biggest rich man he met this year, Du Changqiu also stuffed another barrel of wine for the old man, and got into the carriage.
All the way out of Taiyue City, Du Changqiu and Master Zhou's mood gradually recovered.
Master Zhou was able to sell most of the salt to the Xie family because the way to sell the salt was settled. He also kept about [-] liters and distributed them to a traveling merchant surnamed Tao who dared to contact him in private.
Finally, he saved a little face, and didn't ask Cao, Sun and Zhang, the three local overlords of Guangyuan County, to choke their necks.
Just be careful next time you deliver the goods, this Cao Sunzhang is a big family.Although the big family is not as good as it was in the past, it is still fashionable and able to influence the court situation at every turn, but after all, the centipede is dead but not dead, and its influence on the court situation has been weakened, but their wealth is still not to be underestimated.
Moreover, they all stay in the place where their family is located and control the local economy, which is a bit like a land emperor who has no apparent fiefdom.After the war, where these people are located, there is still a delicate balance between the strength and the princes and princes after the rebellion, such as giving money and food support in exchange for one side's peace.
It's like surrendering, but it also has the power to mediate, so that it won't become a fat sheep waiting to be slaughtered.
Being able to do this to such a degree shows that a real big family is still worthy of vigilance.However, that's all for later. Master Zhou got into the carriage, carefully avoided the sleeping calf in the carriage, took out the ledger to Du Changqiu, and began to report.
"My lord, what we bring this time is the output of the first quarter. There is not much salt from brine last year until now. A total of less than [-] wells have brine successively. After brine, the daily output is about five catties. When we get through, the average production in three months can only be calculated as the salt production of [-] salt wells.” Mr. Zhou’s export only has numbers, so let’s clarify the number of salt shipped this time, accurate to every liter, to facilitate account reconciliation .
One well produces five catties of salt a day, one month is one hundred and fifty, three months is four hundred and five, and fifty wells are equal to the total output of 2 catties of salt.
The price of private salt is high. When it comes to this, many people don’t understand why. In fact, it is very simple, because the coming and going of official salt is monitored throughout the whole process, that is to say, its shipment and sale are supervised throughout the process, and cannot exceed the official price. Highest pricing.
This was a good thing at first, but when it was put into practice, during the period of official corruption, official salt was colluded with officials and businessmen, which led to merchants hoarding salt, small merchants could not buy salt, and were not qualified to sell salt. resource.
Therefore, it can be caused that the salt production can keep up, but the big merchants put the goods in the warehouse and do not release the goods. They only say that the salt production is reduced, and there is a shortage of official salt in the market.
Then a large amount of official salt was secretly obtained and sold at a high price. The common people could not buy official salt. If they wanted to survive, they had to buy private salt.
The laws of the market sometimes seem very illogical at first glance, but in fact, as long as you substituting them a little seriously, you will know that the market is more about human nature than pure logic, and sometimes it is even anti-logic.
In short, salt is now a hard currency, and hard demand is the most important.And the quality of this batch of salt is very good, so the price is also very good.
"The price given by the Mei family is based on the price of premium quality salt, and Tao Liulang also calculated it in the same way. They are all 650 liters per liter. The total profit this time is 620 five taels of silver." Master Zhou said, and handed it over. The account book, said in a low voice, "The expenses during this period accounted for more than 800 taels, and the other expenses replaced by rice and grain are all in the book. Please have a look at it."
Du Changqiu had been teaching Mr. Zhou to use Arabic numerals for accounts all the way out, and now he handed in a very concise form, which was clearly marked, and Du Changqiu knew that the problem was not serious at a glance.
"This salt is really valuable." Du Changqiu breathed a sigh of relief when he saw the money, and said, "Thank you for your hard work. You should teach Baoer well and hand over these accounts to him. You will discuss it in the future."
"Master?" Master Zhou was stunned for a moment, he didn't expect that the tone of the master seemed to want to hand over the account to him with confidence?
However, this is completely unreasonable.
"You don't have real estate in Huarong now, do you?" Master Zhou didn't expect that Master Xie's next words made him even more frightened.
He heard Mr. Xie say: "There is a small courtyard on Huarong Main Street opposite the county government office. You can tidy it up and take your wife to live there." There used to be a courtyard that was vacant after a family accident. The owner has no relatives, so it naturally becomes the property sealed by the county government.
It was a small courtyard on the second floor, and the alleys were full of well-to-do families. It was a good residential area in Huarong County.Although Huang Dianli had some money, it was not easy to live in the city. Although Huarong County is a county, it has a large population and a small city, so the land is naturally very precious.
However, officials in Daye are corrupt, and occasionally the salaries of officials cannot be paid. If there is a little conscience and no means, food is a problem.How could the small courtyard cost 500 taels to move in? Huang Dianli himself rents it out now. Mr. Zhou didn't expect that he would have a house first?
Or the kind with two floors and a yard!
"Why, don't you like it?" Du Changqiu thought he had a better idea, and said, "It's okay if you don't like it, I'll exchange it for you when the time comes..."
"I like it, I like it! Thank you, sir, for your reward!" Master Zhou was shocked, fearing that the duck he got would fly away, he quickly knelt down and saluted, he was so moved beyond words.
After many years, he never expected that in Huarong, he would finally have a place to settle down.
Du Changqiu doesn't quite understand how much the people of Daye value life and security. He only knows that Master Zhou has done a good job, but now that the finances are tight, it's best to give what he can. If the other party doesn't want it, then he still gives the money. It is Du Changqiu's only criterion to get benefits for the loved ones.
He didn't expect that at this time, Master Zhou was completely planning to follow Mr. Xie.
He once testified for his wife and brother because he couldn't see the turmoil in the house, and he offended people and was kicked out of Jian'an. There is no way to continue to live in Jian'an, and his wife and brother are worried about him, so they just want to come to Huarong to take up a post, so they invite him out.
Unexpectedly, after eight years of ignorance, he finally settled down.
When Master Zhou went out, he thought he was very good at nourishing Qi, but in the end it was because of a fluctuating mind. He hid in his carriage and was jealous all the way, but he didn't shed tears.
There is no need to cry, the world is unfair, he has seen enough in the first half of his life.
Although the brother-in-law Huang Dianli is a good person, he is really not suitable for the ups and downs of the officialdom. Master Zhou always feels that he has resigned to his fate.
But now, Qingyun has reached his feet, and the ladder has arrived in front of him.
"20 years of Xuechuang and Yinghuo, cloud road and Pengcheng [-] miles." Which scholar has never had such a dream?
That scholar never thought about "learning literary and martial arts, goods and the emperor's family."?
Master Zhou thought that he would never meet Mingjun, but since Bole was born in this world, he couldn't meet him in vain.
The pile of dead ashes in Master Zhou's heart, because of this kindness to live and work, was rekindled with a little fire.
Du Changqiu was counting the money he got back from the pawns. Those ingenious and priceless goodies, because they were in a hurry to sell, the money they sold was just a little more than salt.
After all, it was a huge loss, but it was a fair price. After all, the food was so good. After all, Guangyuan County was not a place with a lot of rich people. It would be good if someone could eat these goods.
At the rear of the car, a donkey cart with a green cover was billowing in smoke, chasing their horse-drawn carriage team, and when it arrived in front of it, Du Changqiu heard the old man shout: "That little brother Xie, little brother Xie!"
?
Du Changqiu thought he was hallucinating, he stretched out his head, and saw not far away, Mrs. Pan smiled as if a chrysanthemum was blooming, and said to him earnestly: "Brother Xie, you said you invited me to your house when you have time. Being a guest, discussing how to adjust a cauldron, is it still worth doing now?"
The author has something to say: Note:
